With (surprisingly) little fanfare, it appears that the Cambium C13 is now available in three widths (132, 145, 158), with and without cutouts:

I have the original C13 model on my Merckx. Definitely want to try the next width up for my new custom cross/gravel bike next summer, as that bike will probably fit a little more upright.

Thanks for this -- probably would have taken me awhile to catch on.

For reference, do you (or does anyone) know the width of the original C13 as well as the C15?

The original C13 is 132mm.

The C15 is 140mm. C17 is 162mm.

Not sure why they didn't make the wider C13 models match the widths they had established with the original Cambium line.
